Titanic Quarter in Belfast lit up last night with a spectacular display of fireworks as Halloween festivities kicked off.

The former slipways where the world’s most famous ship slid into the water over a century ago played host to a new generation of Ulster creativity with some fangtastic costume efforts.

Far from settling for the traditional witch or wizard costumes, some revellers at the Metro Monster Mash party dressed elaborately as characters like Edward Scissorhands, a fanged cheetah and one man even recreated the ghoulish, cult horror movie classic, Hellraiser.

Local singer Conor Grimes, from BBC’s The Voice, swapped busking on city streets for headlining the event. He was supported by local band Freefall.

Street theatre, face painting and fire shows entertained both young and old, and there were prizes awarded for the night’s best costumes.

In the run up to Halloween, there will be ghost walks from City Hall each night and special tours of Crumlin Road Gaol.

In the north west, the Londonderry Halloween Carnival will run until November 3. The Halloween parade will take place on Thursday

I’ll set the scene. On a damp Wednesday afternoon, a giant, demolished bat mask landed in the centre of Leicester Square. If you pair that strange occurrence with fire canons, a flaming bat symbol and hundreds of fans, it could only mean one thing. THE DARK KNIGHT RISES European premiere was about to begin – and did it go off with a bang!

Our latest crush Taylor Kitsch hit London last night for the premiere of his new film ‘John Carter’.

The bizarre plot for the film sees Taylor playing a Civil war vet who finds himself transported to Mars. The main draw seems to be the fact that the gorgeous actor spends most of the movie’s running time topless.
